Zimbabwe's Top Energy Boss Set to Headline Invest in African Energy 2025
The Invest in African Energy (IAE) 2025 Forum is delighted to share that Zimbabwe’s Minister of Energy and Power Development, July Moyo, will be giving the opening speech at their upcoming gathering in Paris next month. He will discuss his nation's key energy goals and potential areas for investment. This appearance signifies an important juncture for Zimbabwe as it aims to propel its energy industry forward through increased involvement from the private sector.
Following Zimbabwe's recent global initiatives to draw investments into its energy industry, Minister Moyo has joined these efforts. These endeavors include top-tier meetings designed to present a definitive strategy for upgrading infrastructure and emphasizing the critical contribution of private funding in tackling gaps within the country’s facilities. Given that a significant segment of the populace remains without electrical services and consumption consistently exceeds production levels, Zimbabwe is proactively pursuing key collaborations to implement dependable, eco-friendly, and varied energy options.
IAE 2025 ( https://apo-opa.co/4d2nKO6 ) This exclusive platform aims to foster investments linking African energy sectors with international financiers. Held from May 13-14, 2025, in Paris, the conference provides participants with two concentrated days of interaction with sector specialists, project creators, financial backers, and government officials.

To meet both near-term and long-term goals, the government is pursuing a dual-track approach: restarting coal-fired power plants to stabilize domestic supply in the short term, while simultaneously accelerating investment in renewable energy. Solar and wind projects are at the forefront of Zimbabwe’s energy strategy, with plans to develop large-scale solar farms and export power to neighboring countries. In partnership with Zambia, Zimbabwe is exploring floating solar developments on Lake Kariba – backed by a recent $250 million facility from the African Export-Import Bank to develop a 250 MW project by mid-2026 – signaling a shift toward innovative, climate-resilient infrastructure.
At his keynote address, Minister Moyo will detail present investment prospects within power generation, transmission systems, and off-grid electricity solutions. He will also discuss regulatory adjustments and policies aimed at luring independent power suppliers and overseas investors. The minister’s attendance underscores Zimbabwe’s dedication to collaborating with worldwide entities for reshaping its energy sector and ensuring enduring energy stability. Additionally, Zimbabwe’s involvement in the IAE 2025 aims to align with the event’s overarching objective of linking Africa’s energy sectors with international financial backers, project developers, and key collaborators.
